Very cool picture

The International Space Station in orbit, with the limb of the earth beyond and the full moon just above. A very cool picture. For those who say we don't belong in space, here's news, we are in space. We are hanging in the solar system's gravity well just like the moon and the rest of the planets. We have a home in space, even if we've never left the planet. An amazing thought. Equally amazing is that we live on the surface of this ball and are able to exist in the thin layer of atmosphere that you see in the picture. The thin blue haze is our home. And this is the only planet hereabouts that has that feature. That's humbling. It was created for us to inhabit as we now and always have been.

In the beginning... The Alpha. The Creator created, and it was so. And we were so. And thus has it been since the beginning. The heavens declare the glory of God and the firmament showeth His handiwork. Canst thou bind the sweet influences of Pleiades, or loose the bands of Orion? (Job 38:31) He can. Seek himthat maketh the seven stars and Orion, and turneth the shadow of death into the morning, and maketh the day dark with night: that calleth for the waters of the sea, and poureth them out upon the face of the earth: The LORD is his name. (Amos 5:8) They belong to Him that has created. We belong to Him that has created.

For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God. I Corinthians 6:20
